Today our show is about love because we recorded it on Valentine’s Day. Who and What do Nicola and I Love? We created some categories in advance and compared our answers on the day. Something we love: Nicola is in love with her MacBook Pro and me with words (no surprise there, surely?) Someone we love: I love myself, as a singleton it all must start there, and Nicola loves her children, Phoebe and Nelson Books we love: Nicola loves Iain M. Banks and Diana Cooper, I love memoirs, Bill Bryson and Barbara Kingsolver Work we love; We both picked coaching, […]

In my experience, this problem arises from the over-application of the logical brain. When I was grappling with this myself, it turned out it was right under my nose, the place where the answer to this question often resides. Of course, that choice of home for this little lovebucket makes it particularly invisible, especially to us, and blindingly obvious to others. Three questions might help. 1. What’s your cred? What’s in your life and in your career to date and in your CV that will impress potential future clients and enable them to resonate with your story and think “Yes! […]

I met a prospective client for the first time on Saturday. She’s a Star profile in Wealth Dynamics and she introduced that rather shyly before announcing her heart’s desire. Suffice to say that there could be no more appropriate profession for a Star – involving such words as passion, performing, acting, am-dram, singing, voice, auditions, drama school and improv.

Her passion was immediately obvious. How […]

“What a beautiful blast of fresh, ground grass smelling sunny sky dreaming air you are! It is so refreshing to hear somebody appraise so eloquently the spiritual alongside the nuts and bolts aspects of actuating our dreams.

I see the true treasure of living in alignment to your passion, of following your dreams. It’s so vital, so core to our happiness and that is what I can see you want to facilitate for people in Club […]

Do you consider yourself to be an entrepreneur? One of the ways clients illustrate to me that they are an entrepreneur is when they start talking about all the ideas they have. They’ve got so many good ideas for a business, but they have no idea how to begin to make any money. Oh dear. My job is then to persuade them to pick the best one and run with that. And we work together to calculate which is their best idea. I want entrepreneurs to show me the money. Where is the nearest money? Which of your ideas […]

Do you have a business or a business idea worth getting up early for? Today I began a new regime of rising at 6 a.m. to begin to take chunks out of a project I am passionate about. In winter I like to lie abed until 8 a.m. and begin work at 9 but I realised that if I am serious about my goals and intentions for 2010, I would need to carve out some extra time to get ahead. Although I work very long hours and am terrifyingly self-disciplined, certain projects very close to my own heart are not […]
